Automation Parameters in the VST MultiPanner

Recording automation for the orbit controls and the independent positioning mode, however, is handled differently. Automation data for these parameters is written as a combination of front-rear panning, left-right panning, and Rotate Signal parameters. For the independent positioning mode, scaling is added. For this reason, modifying existing automation data is a complex task, as it involves changing many different parameters. If an automation pass does not meet your expectations, we recommend to start from scratch.
